Book report

Introduction

Here you want to provide basic information about the book, and a sense of what your report will be about. You should include:

1. Title (underlined)/Author
2. Publication Information: Publisher, year, number of pages
3. Genre
4. A brief (1-2 sentences) introduction to the book and the report/review.

Body

There are two main sections for this part. The first is an explanation of what the book is about. The second is your opinions about the book and how successful it is. There are some differences between reports on fiction or other imaginative writing and reports on non-fiction books.

But for both, a good place to start is to explain the author's purpose and/or the main themes of the book. Then you can summarize.

Conclusion

Briefly conclude by pulling your thoughts together. You may want to say what impression the book left you with, or emphasize what you want your reader to know about it.

Write 350 words about a film or book. Here are some good ideas:

We can divide the film review into three parts:

1. Introduction: this gives an overview of who is in the film and what it's about. It also sums up the reviewer's conclusion about the film (so readers can form an opinion without reading the whole of the review)
2. Paragraph 2: the reviewer then describes the plot and the action, while informing the reader which actor plays which role.
3. Paragraph 3: the reviewer then analyses the film, talking about the director and then the actors, looking at good things as well as bad things.
4. Finally: the review informs the reader when the film is out (and sometimes, in a local review, where it can be seen).

You are going to write 4 essays this school year, with 350 words each.
